I'm on my way to college- I'm so excited! I've always dreamed of this moment in my life but never really imagined it coming true. Everything has been prepared and now the only thing left is transportation. I need a vehicle that I am able to drive that has adaptions that will allow me to be completely independent in transportation to both college and work. This vehicle will be a vital part of my life and will open more opportunities, as well as allow me to be more self-reliant. To make this happen I need help.

Ten years ago, when I was seven, I was in a car accident that injured both my spine and brain, which left me paraplegic. My mother and four year old sister were killed in the same car accident. I continually defied the doctor's predictions and after ten months in the hospital I was able to return to school and utltimately to be a part of the graduating class of 2014. I am excited to enter the next phase of my education and ready to embark on a life of greater indepedence. I am planning to study medicine and want to become a doctor. During my extensive hospitilization and subsequent surgeries I experienced firsthand how difficult medical treament can be for the patient. That is why I want to become a doctor, so that I can ease this suffering for others.![](http://3b4efb995be6c5c64252-c03f075f8191fb4e60e74b907071aee8.r12.cf1.rackcdn.com/1729656_1405389757.7666_multi.jpeg)
I have found a van that will be perfect! It can be accomodated for my current needs. To make it a reality I am asking for you to please consider donating. I have already been blessed by an agency that will be paying for the total cost of the van conversion; however my family and I are responsible for the purchase of the van itself. Thank you for your consideration!
